Had to download and login to a new app. Ode never worked. The sample recording was very difficult to understand. Thank goodness they refunded me.
I did not have a good experience w/ this app. The narration was hard to understand & I kept getting lost. There is more than one red roofed church on this island! I turned it off & just walked around on my own.

Such a great app! Uses gps to know when to start the next part of the tour and lets you know if you’ve gone the wrong way. Easy to download and use.
A very good tour which we were able to do at our own pace. A bit difficult to load and authorise the code but everything else worked extremely well.
